<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:windowtext">We have not resolved the processes yet for this iteration of institutional input on policy revisions. The regional compact directors will continue to work with
NC-SARA staff to flesh out this process. In the meantime, NC-SARA sent a message to institution contacts yesterday asking for input to be sent to their information email address (see below). I wanted you to be aware of this, should you receive inquiries from
the institutions in your respective states/territories. The deadline for institutional feedback is still June 30. We will discuss this at our teleconference on June 22 at 2 p.m. eastern.

at the upcoming fall 2020 board meeting. This is an opportunity for institutions to provide ideas on any revisions you would like to see to current SARA policy. Please submit your comments to <a href="mailto:info@nc-sara.org" target="_blank">info@nc-sara.org</a> by
